nice hack i have that installed....

I appreciate the link...however, the origin of the script for this mod is located at the top of this thread. It is also from DynamicDrive.

There are actually three versions...one for the top, one for the left...and one for the right. I decided to create this mod for use on the right. To me...it just seems to be more functional.

There is also a similar mod here at vbulletin.org which has the same menu you have. Here's the link to that mod: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...=floating+menu

I will also be adding a link to the "Properties" page, if anyone wants to add color to the bars and headers.

Sorry...

I'm not familiar with vbAdvanced...however, I'm sure there is someone here that is...and they can direct you.

I apologize, for not having the answer you need, but as you can see...I don't supply support for this mod...yet, if I do have an answer...I will post back.

thank you for the reply, the mod is well suited for me, thank you. If it is also done so for home page, it would make uniform.

You certainly can...

Visit the link I provided at the beginning of this thread...you can make changes to the link text...and other aspects of the menu...

These changes are made in the mmenu.js and the menuItems.js. The Properties page that will provide you with help in customization is located here.

You're welcome...

The closest I can figure...if vbAdvanced has a header template, that you can edit...you should be able to include this script into it...just like you did within the forum header template.

With that being said...your customization would be complete.

You would follow the same directions that were included for this mod...and just make sure you include the mmenu.js and menuItems.js files into the root directory where vbAdvanced is installed.

Hope this helped...

Yes, that is what I did with CMPS. I thought one edits should make this. However, it is working for me.
Thank you again.

What makes it different from the previous release here at vb.org ?

The previous version listed, had the menu on the left. This mod places it on the right and I also included a little more detailed information for those who want to make variable changes. The other mod left that up to you.

I also included a link to the original script at DynamicDrive...for those who may be interested in placing this menu on the left, or the top of their forum pages.

My instructions give you a little more information as well...

If you're asking if there is any significant difference...no there isn't...aside from what I have just told you.

I'm glad you have it working...

In case anyone was having the same problem as you...you may want to post what exactly you did in order for it to work.

It'll help a lot of people from asking the same question...over...and over...and over...

Can be place it on the bottom???

Saviour

11-17-2007 07:52 PM

Thanks for fielding that one for me, puertoblack2003...

Also...don't forget to change every instance of kbmenu3, in the above code, to whatever you have named your menu.

The original script from DynamicDrive shows this menu on the left, right and the top...no mention was made for this as a bottom menu.

Great support! :up:

last question... the links can call PopUps as 'Radio' & 'TV's Hacks?

Well, thanks...even though this mod really isn't supported...

I'm not quite sure I understand your question...are you asking if it will pull up a pop-up page, or a video from a link?

If you have a pop-up page already configured...all you would have to do is link to that page. Did I answer your question?

iogames

11-17-2007 08:53 PM

I've 2 Links on NavBar that open PopUps Windows, Like the 'RADIO & TV' hack... so how do you solve the problem?

I just scanned that Radio and TV mod...

It would seem you have to choose a player before you can select a station...is this correct? If so, that may be the reason why the pop-up fails...not quite sure. They make make this an automatic function as the mod progresses even further...or maybe it's just a permissions thing?

puertobalck2003...

What problems did you face when you tried to add a link to the pop-up?

I haven't tried it, but this should work...

change:

Code:

<script src="mmenu.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script src="menuItems.js" type="text/javascript">

to:

Code:

<script src="$vboptions[bburl]/forum/mmenu.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script src="$vboptions[bburl]/forum/menuItems.js" type="text/javascript">

if your forum is in a different directory, such as "forums," then change the replacement code accordingly.

Please let me know if it works for you.

You're good...

Can't sneak nothing past you...:D

I've added additional snapshots so that you can get an idea of the customization features possible with this mod.

Notice how the menu bar blends seamlessly into the right border of my default theme. This particular menu bar was created using an image as the background for the bar...instead of color text code. I also removed the border within the menu itself so that the parts of the forum page are actually visible in the background of the menu, when it's expanded. It also looks quite nice with the default vbulletin theme.

Even though support is not offered for this mod, I will do the best I can to try and help those looking for customization assistance.

All my best...

I would imagine that you can add any links to the menu that you want
